Totally stumped on Claws/Inv


Cynic

 

Posted

What I'm trying to do it come up with a sturdy scrapper, fairly good defence to non S&L damage and to be able to run the chain Followup, Focus, Slash with the procs in Slash and Followup acordingly (Chance for BU and Chance for -Res)

I just cant seem to make it fit. The only other must have power on the claw side for me is spin and I really have no problem with mules. Would like 70%ish S&L Res, the above chain all the time to keep double Followup for the other two attacks (I know with hasten I have it on my Claw/WP and that only has another 5% recharge bonus) and of course the end to run it and shields.

Is this doable without purples? I really hope it is

They're now putting it all together.

Eight legs, one body, silk,
spider, brilliant!"

You're gonna need a lot of recharge to run that chain.
Let's just say more than perma hasten recharge.
So you are gonna be needing those purples if you want that chain to be effective.
That might not be the chain you want for a tough claws/Inv build.

You're not going to be able to run a seamless FU>Focus>Slash attack chain even if you were running a Claws/SR (with the commensurate 30% +rech that it gets that no one else does). It simply takes too much +rech (313% +rech in FU). You can get excellent dps (and double stack FU on all attacks) with FU>Focus>Slash>Swipe however.

However, if you're willing to go for maximum damage rather than a seamless attack chain, you can go with FU>Focus>Slash>Wait. As long as that wait is .528 seconds or less (re: FU recharges in 3.432 seconds), you'll be getting better DPS than you would with FU>Focus>Slash>Swipe. This requires 250% +rech in FU (hard but not impossible), 100% +rech in Focus, and 64% +rech in Slash.

Here's a more offensively built variant on my Claws/Invuln build that does most of what you're asking about. It does the FU>Focus>Slash>Wait(.528 sec) attack string, is endurance sustainable, gets 67.5% +res (s/l), and manages 40.9 +def (s/l), 38.7 +def (e/n), and 37.8% +def (f/c) with saturated Invinc.

Cheers guys
